  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Pops pinch-hit homer

    Mendick hit a solo home run in his only plate appearance Sunday against the Orioles.

    Mendick continues to lose out on playing time due to the return of Bryan Ramos, though he accounted for the White Sox's only run Sunday after his homer in the eighth inning. It was Mendick's second home run of the season and first since April 30.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Losing playing time to Ramos

    Mendick is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Mendick looks to have moved back into a utility role following Bryan Ramos' return from the 10-day injured list Saturday. Ramos will pick up a second straight start at the hot corner while Mendick once again hits the bench.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: On bench Wednesday

    Mendick is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

    After being activated from the injured list Friday, Mendick had started at third base in each of the White Sox's ensuing five games, going 3-for-18 with two doubles and two RBI. Mendick should have a fairly clear path to regular playing time at the hot corner while Bryan Ramos (quadricep) is on the shelf, but he'll give way to Zach Remillard in Wednesday's series finale.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Drives in two

    Mendick went 2-for-4 with a single and a two-run double during Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jays.

    Mendick entered Tuesday's contest 1-for-14 (.071) in four games since coming off the IL. The 30-year-old delivered a two-run double in the eighth inning off Tim Mayza to provide the White Sox with some insurance runs. Mendick has been serving as the White Sox's everyday third baseman with Bryan Ramos (quad) sidelined.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: First hit since return

    Mendick went 1-for-3 with a double Sunday against the Yankees.

    Mendick was activated from the injured list Friday and has since started all three games at third base while hitting in the bottom third of the order. He collected his first hit since returning with a double in the seventh frame. With Bryan Ramos (quadriceps) sidelined, Mendick should have a clear path to playing time in the short term.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Activated from IL

    Mendick (back) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Friday.

    Mendick was placed on the injured list in early May with back soreness and only needed two rehab starts before being activated. During those two Triple-A games, Mendick went 0-for-8 with two walks and a run scored. He'll replace Braden Shewmake on the big-league roster and could see immediate action at third base with Bryan Ramos also headed to the 10-day IL with a strained left quad.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Hitless in first rehab game

    Mendick (back) went 0-for-5 with a walk in his first rehab game Tuesday with Triple-A Charlotte.

    Mendick served as Charlotte's designated hitter, so he'll presumably need to resume playing the infield at some point during his rehab assignment before the White Sox bring him back from the 10-day injured list, perhaps as soon as this weekend. Following his promotion from Charlotte on April 22, Mendick had briefly settled into a near-everyday role at third base, but it's unclear if he'll recapture a regular starting gig once activated. Prospect Bryan Ramos (quadricep) has since settled in as Chicago's third baseman, and the organization could be inclined to let him continue playing regularly.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Nearing rehab assignment

    Mendick (back) is expected to begin a rehab assignment in the near future, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

    Mendick will begin a rehab assignment in the next day or two according to manager Pedro Grifol. The 30-year-old has been out since May 2 with lower-back tightness, but he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster in the near future.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Battling back tightness

    Mendick was scratched from the White Sox's lineup for Friday's game against St. Louis due to lower-back tightness, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

    The severity of Mendick's injury remains unknown, but it is apparently enough to prevent him from starting Friday's contest. Braden Shewmake will serve as Chicago's third baseman while batting ninth.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Lands on injured list

    The White Sox placed Mendick on the 10-day injured list Saturday with lower-back tightness, retroactive to Thursday.

    Mendick's back issues caused him to be scratched from the lineup prior to Friday's game, and they will now officially cost him more than a week as he heads to the IL. Bryan Ramos was recalled from Double-A Birmingham in a corresponding move and could receive the majority of reps at third base while Mendick is sidelined.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Scratched Friday

    Mendick was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Cardinals for unspecified reasons.

    Mendick was slated to bat seventh and play third base but was moved out of the lineup for reasons yet to be disclosed. Instead, Braden Shewmake will play third and bat ninth.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Belts first homer

    Mendick went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double during Tuesday's loss to the Twins.

    Mendick has never been known to be a power hitter, but his two-run shot in the fifth inning gave Chicago a 4-2 lead over the Twins in a game the White Sox would eventually lose. The 30-year-old infielder has now collected a hit in four of his last five games and is slashing .286/.324/.457 across 37 plate appearances since joining the Sox on April 22.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Hitting well

    Mendick went 2-for-4 with two runs scored Friday against Tampa Bay.

    Mendick joined the White Sox on Monday and has started every game since. He's hit at different spots in the order, but was slotted into the seventh spot Friday and is likely to remain in the bottom third with the addition of Tommy Pham. Mendick has gone 6-for-21 with two doubles, a stolen base and four runs scored, though he is striking out at a 31.8 percent clip.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Two hits in 2024 debut

    Mendick went 2-for-4 on Monday against the Twins.

    Mendick began the season with Triple-A Charlotte but joined the big-league club Monday and made his debut while starting at third base. Braden Shewmake has picked up the majority of at-bats at the hot corner since Yoan Moncada (thigh) went down, though Shewmake is hitless in his last four starts and is just 5-for-35 overall. His struggles could open up more regular playing time for Mendick, though he has only a career .242 average and .112 ISO across 519 plate appearances.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Officially added to roster

    The White Sox selected Mendick's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

    Mendick had been swinging a hot bat with Charlotte, having homered in five straight games. It's a power surge that's sure to slow in the majors given that the 30-year-old has slugged just 11 career home runs over 184 contests at the big-league level, but Mendick nonetheless will probably be in line to see regular action in the infield for Chicago in the short term. He'll start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's series opener in Minnesota.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Expected to join big-league roster

    Mendick is expected to have his contract selected from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Mendick has homered in five consecutive games with Charlotte and he'll now get a shot with the big-league club as the White Sox start a four-game series in Minnesota on Monday. Lenyn Sosa is expected to be optioned to Triple-A while it's currently unclear how the team will open up a spot on the 40-man roster.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Can't secure roster spot

    Mendick will not make the White Sox's Opening Day roster, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Mendick was in camp on a minor-league deal and has maintained just a .614 OPS with three extra-base hits across 41 at-bats. The team will instead opt to keep Braden Shewmake on the roster, who should fill a utility role along the infield.

  • White Sox's Danny Mendick: Will be in White Sox's camp

    Mendick signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training.

    It's a return to the South Side for Mendick, who spent the first four seasons of his big-league career with the White Sox before putting up a .509 OPS in 33 games for the Mets in 2023. The utility man will attempt to win a reserve role.
